Rentals, Real and Imagined
gives real estate investors, landlords, and buyers a sharp, bulletproof framework to expose manipulated rent rolls, uncover fake tenants, and dissect artificial yield guarantees before risking capital. Written for buyers who demand hard proof over seller assurances, this guide translates complex real estate fraud mechanisms into clear, repeatable checks you can perform on any deal.
What You'll Discover InsideSellers and promoters often inflate property values using manufactured cash flow, temporary rent subsidies, and rigged bank statements. This book equips you with the forensic toolkit to verify the real income of any income-producing asset.
Inside, you will learn how to:
Expose phantom tenancies:
Distinguish real, legal occupancy from staged units, temporary lease-backs, and inflated tenant profiles.
Audit rent rolls and trust accounts:
See past doctored screenshots, altered bank statements, and synthetic ledger entries with independent verification methods.
Uncover hidden operational costs:
Calculate true net yields by accounting for disguised expenses, deferred maintenance, and artificial rent guarantees.
Navigate syndicate and seller pressure:
Identify high-pressure sales tactics used by promoters, master-lease schemes, and rent-to-rent structures.
Verify regulatory and digital records:
Cross-reference licensing registers, property registers, and dashboard data to ensure every claim is legally sound.
